We decided to turn this year’s<Overseas Features> into an extended analysis of last month’s <2000s REVIVAL>, the special features on the millennium’s emo / pop punk / post-hardcore movement. In fact, many bands who were active during that time have never stopped making music of the genre they love; or for the ones who once went on hiatus, decide to make glorious comeback this year! We will take a closer look via the reunion tour of the older bands, as well as the live perspective of the newcomers who joins the force after the golden days of the genre. We will have Underoath, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Deftones, Misfits in original lineup (!), Pierce The Veil, All Time Low, Thursday, etc, with more to be announced!

NEXT WEEK! Vader will come to destroy Hidden Agenda’s stage again! Their last show here has remained one of the best gig of 2014!!! This time they will bring Australian metallers Earth Rot and Tyrant of Mary from Japan along with them! For those who are new to their music, Vader started out as a heavy / trash metal band in Poland in the early 80s and gradually switched their focus to death metal. Setting out as a pioneer in the Poland extreme metal scene, the band became a notable group in the early death metal scene.
